I've just ordered one of these and wonder if anyone has any updates of any problems with the plane. I have heard of some retract problems. Any input would be appreciated! Mine will be electric.

My Dad just finished his P47 about a month ago with the G26 in it. I was the test pilot for the maiden and subsequent flights. I thought the G26 did just fine. It is no power house by any means. But after we put a 18x6 prop on it, it did fine. I thought it flew scale like. And it seemed to float in for landings. I think once we get the motor broke in it will be better of course. It is a sweet flying plane with killer looks and cool factor with the flaps and retracts! I hope to get many more flights on it. Charlie |

Skyjet, where did you find one to order? I can't find them anywhere. I thought they stopped making them. Sometimes it shows up on Horizon Hobby as out-of-stock and at other times it doesn't show up at all. Shawn |

| I just received mine today. I can't wait to get started on it. It will be a slow project with a couple of birthdays, anniversary and the Holidays around the corner. I bought mine from Graves RC in Orlando, FL. I have ordered from them a couple of times and I do recommend them. The ARF costs $569.99 plus an over size shipping charge. The Oversize shipping charge to NC was $70.29. So mine ended up costing $640.00. The last one I know of is at this link: http://www.gravesrc.com/HANGER_9_P_4..._p/han2700.htm
